What Happend to Family Guy?

I'm hoping that's the last we see of Jillian.

Cosby sex:

"Now you will get ready for the zim-zam and the babbity-bibbity! And you will take off your clothes like VROOO AND VOOM and get ready for the most splendiferous pudding pop you have ever seen!"

 

[Mister J]

I liked the Mr. Magoo gag. I haven't seen one of those cartoons in ages.

 

[K.B.]

Yeah the Cosby bit was great and the Magoo gag was one of the best FG has ever done.

"And I won't see them coming!" lmfao

While celebrating the 100th episode of American Dad, Seth MacFarlane spoke with Wired Magazine about Family Guy coming to the big screen…

"Fox wants it. We know what we want to do with it. It's just a question of finding the time. That's why The Simpsons took so many years to do theirs. It wasn't because they didn't know what they wanted to do with it. They just couldn't fit it into the schedule. There's so much to do for a weekly animated series — twice as much as you have to do for a live-action show. So, we're finding time where we can. We're in the early stages right now."

I'm on the fence about this.

If a Family Guy movie ever gets made it won't be for a while, now more so with The Cleveland Show getting picked up for a second season.

The Cleveland Show Renewed for Season 2
No, you didn't somehow miss Season 1 of the Family Guy spinoff...

FOX is obviously feeling very confident in the Family Guy spinoff. Originally scheduled as a midseason debut this spring, Season 1 of the show instead was moved to this fall, and given a full 22-episode order. Now The Hollywood Reporter says 13 episodes have been ordered for Season 2, ensuring there'll be at least 35 episodes of the series, even though a single installment has yet to air.

 

[Mister J]

I still think a show around Cleveland isn't a particularly good idea. It'll be interesting.

I stepped off the fence and walked away already.

Stephen King needs to sue.

Stephen King needs to sue.

Him and Joaquin Phoenix.

I was let down by the Misery and Shawshank segments but the Stand By Me one was without a doubt one of the funniest things in Family Guy history. Non stop laughs from start to finish and had me in tears.

 

[Prison Mike]

I didn't find this week's episode that funny. I chuckled here and there but overall, it wasn't non stop laughter. I'm still waiting on the Empire Strikes Back spoof...

 

[K.B.]

I didn't mean the whole episode was non stop laughs from start to finish just the Stand By Me segment. That was a goldmine (especially if your a fan of the movie.)

Oh and one big complaint....Joe getting crippled in every segment: Anyone else think that was a total rip off of the Treehouse of Horror where Willy keeps getting the axe in the back? Thats all I could think of everytime...

all I thought about was Kenny dying in each episode of South Park.

 

[Ghostvirus]

The Jauquin Pheonix joke was a little harsh. & the episode really wasn't all that funny.

 

[Bobber]

Thought that episode was extremely poor, and just wasted potential.

 

[chaseter]

All Seth did was use a movie's premise and put in his characters and use the same jokes he has done 1000 times. What happened to this show? Where is the originality?

 

[CELTICPRED]

Just watched it on Hulu.

Wow. Not impressed.

Not picking a fight but its bad for FG but its okay when Simpsons, Robot Chicken etc do it?


I cant believe all the hate this episode is getting. Well I can understand for the Misery/Shawshank ones but I cant believe I'm the only one who loved the Stand By Me

 

[Mister J]

I thought some of the gags were good, but as a whole, it was a little flat. Not bad, just not that good ...although better than a lot of what the second half of the season has been.

 

[Silverstein]

Seth said that he's working on making the characters Grow, so a lot of you saying that they haven't changed isn't accurate.

Meg: She went from being an equal to being hated, and now she's becoming strong-willed in her own right and lashing back at people from time to time. I think she is making her way into being respected again.

Chris: Chris is shown to be less of an idiot then what he was portrayed before.

Stewie: Yeah, they stopped the "is he gay?" and outed him pretty much..But, he's also showing less hate towards the world. Now, most of the time, he comes across as being the "chill" one of the house.

Peter and Lois: Peter is about the same...I wish they could work on him. Lois seems less "restrained", like it doesn't seem like she is hiding any frustration anymore.

But, yeah, they kind of dropped a lot of the stuff they had been building up. And I do agree that the show has become more of a clip show, that is VERY annoying. There's good and bad. I don't think it's comparable to the Simpsons, which is desperately in need of dying.


I was in Best Buy with a friend, and we were looking at the TVs when the Simpsons came on. The intro seriously, no joke, lasted for like 3 minutes. They were chasing the couch into space and around the world and stuff.....You can tell they have just run out of ideas.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

I actually thought the stand by me was the weakest.

Misery was all right.

Shawshank was good, I thought.

Peter waiting for Cleveland...and he never shows.

I mean seriously, who the hell would have remembered the name of that town?

 

[IRON_Lad]

I ****en loved this ep

 

[IRON_Lad]

I quit watching this show.

Wow...thanks for posting that
